Comparative Analysis of Routing Protocols in Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN)

ABSTRACT

The emerging technologies in healthcare industries are adopting necessary needs for the treatment of dreadful diseases and clinical diagnoses. At the age of the COVID-19 pandemic where transmission of infection is at severe risk, the treatment of the patient can be done remotely. [1] The progression in the field of healthcare is eminently supported by involving real-time diagnosis and e-treatment of the patients. Digital technologies involved in this diagnosis are Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, Machine Learning, the Internet of Things (IoT), etc. Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs) are the technology that has accomplished the capability to restructure healthcare and make available pervasive health care support to the patients. Enormous research is ongoing in this area and creating new ideas and technologies to make lives easy, safe, and convenient for the patients and healthcare providers. © 2022 IEEE.
